Have you heard about “Arduino”? Now is your chance to learn what it is and what it does.

Arduino is an open micro controller used by hobbyists and engineers. And, anyone can learn the basics.

Here is an explanation by Ladyada cited in PCWorld: “As Ladyada explains:

“It’s the glue people use to connect tasks together.The best way to describe an Arduino is with a few examples. Want to have a coffee pot tweet when the coffee is ready? Arduino. Want to make a set of quiz buzzers for an event out of Staples’ Easy Buttons? Arduino.”
